    Hi,

    When I am trying to add below code in header.php (as provided in https://docs.designsandcode.com/search-filter/ ) it is throwing syntax error.

    <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[searchandfilter fields=”search,category,post_tag”]’); ?>

    Can you please help to setup “search and filter” plugin ?
    Also there are many plugins which asks to insert shortcodes. Where do we need to add.

    Thanks,
    Shreedhar

    Hello Shreedhar,
    You are near to implementing the shordcode in the theme.
    Put the code below inside inc/hook/header.php line at say, line no. 31.
    You can add shortcode in header.php anywhere, taking care of proper syntax of php.

    <?php echo do_shortcode('[searchandfilter fields="search,category,post_tag"]'); ?>

    To display the shortcode in widgets area you should add the below code using text widget. As for pages and posts area you should put the shortcode inside content textarea.

    [searchandfilter fields="search,category,post_tag"]

    Regards.
